When I went to the Avid booth at NAB I thought there was a smudge on the DNxIO logo because it looked like DNxIQ.  Well when I asked it is a new version that handles Thunderbolt 3 and PCIe version 3,  not sure what the the proper for the new PCIe is but it's a version 3.  Along with this new connectivity there is the ability to do universal mastering.  Great news except I already own a DNxIO and my understanding is that unit won't do the universal mastering.  In the words of a favorite producer of mine, "F me skipping!!! 

Nice to see the feature that was removed come back at an additional charge for new hardware.  Kinda like buying a new license for script sync.  Oh well nice to see the feature is back but it's not going to make me buy a new box.  Hard to believe this feature can't work with the existing DNxIO hardware.  Typical of Avid to wait long enough to bring back a feature that is almost obsolete due to file based delivery.  I realize it still has value but not like it would have three years ago when the DNxIO came out.
